Book Burning 1: Ansel Adams
There was a fire in downtown Lubbock last month; some apartments, a barbershop, and a used book store were destroyed. Naturally, my camera and I went out to look around; by the day I explored, the salvageable things (metal joists, mostly) had been pulled out to one side and everything else was pushed into a pile. And, shining like a beacon from the pile was Ansel Adams’s autobiography.

It was hard to miss – maybe a non-photographer wouldn’t have seen it, but I definitely spotted it right away.

I’ll say it again, of all the loss, I focus on that book.

It was sad to see it like that.
